- Subject: Determine home directory during install
I've noticed that when I install cygwin fresh on a new machine, my
home directory seems to change location. Sometimes it's in
C:/cygwin/home/[user], but on this machine for some reason its in
C:/Documents and Settings/[user].
How does the installer determine where to put it? I have admin rights
and access to create directories. The only difference with this
machine is that it's on a domain. The other machines I use are
standalone (like at home).
Thanks.
